Ken Abrams - Scale Models: February 2012

Long gone two.

This is the second thing I was doing in that quiet spell, the Ma.K. Panzer Kampf Anzug Ausf K-4 'KETZER'.

This is the second armored suit I've built in the series and I am growing very fond of them. They are fast builds which allow me to get right to the part I like best, the finish. Being of fictional nature, they allow a very open interpretation of how to paint and weather them etc. so you can really go to town. Not too much else to say other than enjoy the pictures

Too long gone

Sorry for such a long absence, I've actually been very busy with non modeling stuff but have managed some time at the bench every so often. I have completed the Miniart Harley and apologize for not having put up more in progress shots, especially of the Celticwerks base but here are a few pics of the final scene.

A full build article will be featured in a future issue of Military In Scale.

Enjoy.

Scale Modeling

The childhood hobby that followed me into adulthood. The dream I once had about being published in those dog eared magazines I spent my rainy days thumbing through long realized, I find myself seeking the simplicity of the hobby I once had as a child.

This is my place to do that, my quiet little corner of the web where I can just unwind with my imagination and find oneself as while simultaneously losing oneself. My bench is my escape, from reality and weight of the world with it's drama and deadlines. Adding that aspect into ones hobby can make it that much less enjoyable. Imagine sitting down at your bench and having your boss demand things from you and your annoying coworker chewing his banana with with his mouth open in your ear.

It's a hobby. It's not life. Enjoy it how ever you like, be it out of the box or rivet counting. Don't let anyone tell you any different, and allow them the same leeway in their endeavor. Build how you like, like how you build.
